The business is now run by Dorothy’s grandson, John-Joe Cottam, along with a highly experienced team.

Gardiner’s help and support those that wish to continue living independent and fulfilling lives in the comfort and familiarity of their own homes.
They can provide support with personal care, medication, respite, accessing the community, light housework, shopping and much more. Help is also available when returning home from hospital, with urgent round the clock care or simply some companionship.

Supporting people to retain their independence, comfort and contact with their local community and enabling them to rebuild or maintain independence is what drives them. All whilst respecting their dignity and individual wishes.

During this national crisis in care and shortage of care workers, Gardiner’s are actively recruiting new care workers to meet the ongoing demand for new support requested.

It is important to them to continue to provide excellent care to their existing clients and be able to help new clients. They have an established team of amazing care workers but would love to hear from those that have the values and qualities that they look for in a great carer.
